[Closed] Rare record club. What you got?

Only one I've got is The Wildhearts "If Love Is Like a Lovebank I Want An Overdraft" 12" gatefold with a "Lovebank" note in the sleeve.

God knows if it's worth anything...

I have an old Roxy Music life bootleg called Champagne and Novocaine somewhere. Probably valueless though.

i have several blade (of you don't see the signs) fame records that were extremely limited. Unopened. Worth a few quid.
I also have a very early de la soul 12'' test pressing. Never looked into it's value.
Come to think of it, i have quite a few hip hop/rap oddities.

NSWL007 - About £20
Blawan ?– Getting Me Down - About £30
SUNKLOWUN - About £25
Boddika & Joy Orbison ?– Swims - About £20
Boddika ?– 2727 - About £20
Digital Mystikz ?– Return II Space - About £20

Not "rare" by a long shot but certainly now worth more than I paid for them. Need to go through the rest of my collection but that's off the top of my head.

I have Nirvana's Bleach on the Sub-Pop label. No idea what it's worth but think it has potential.

used to have loads of em, all the punk coloured vinyls, picture discs, full sets of uk subs etc. at the time i remember stuff like sex pistols credit card sleeve always being worth £25 at the time (big money back then). when i decided to sell up instead of hoarding stuff id never use again, i was excited about how much theyd have appreciated in value. they were worth **** all 😀
sold the lot for £250 to a collector 🙂

I've got the WWF superstars singing Slam Jam on 7" vinyl, might be worth a few bob or nothing at all, not sure.

I've also got a pressing of 'Donald where's ya troosers' by Andy Stewart, but it's not the 7" it's the 12" extended mix where he prentends to be Elvis and shit.

Used to have The The's [i]Uncertain Smile[/i] on 7" (with the flute solo instead of Jools Holland giving it the beans on the joanna).

Not a record but a videogame from the golden age when programmers were like rock stars (sort of!) It's on 5.25" disk and has awesome fold-out packaging like a proper record! Excellent game as well. Just like this one: [url= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/M-U-L-E-Electronic-Arts-Atari-400-800-Complete-in-Folio-MULE-/400517996033?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item5d40bb9e01 ]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/M-U-L-E-Electronic-Arts-Atari-400-800-Complete-in-Folio-MULE-/400517996033?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item5d40bb9e01[/url] (I didn't pay quite that much for it mind!)

Aphex twin "didgeredoo" on a white label.

Used to have The The's Uncertain Smile on 7" (with the flute solo instead of Jools Holland giving it the beans on the joanna).

Still got that one. I have a limited run issue of the new order substance lp which came with a completely different gatefold sleeve bearing the legend "Not for resale unless desperate." ( http://www.ebay.com/bhp/new-order-substance-lp)

I also had the 7 inch factory sample and ideal for living but off loaded them. I think a few of my old singles might be worth a bit now got some very odd pogues picture discs and Lev Bronstein by the Redskins which was rare when i was given it

This is a bit random, but I bought a huge collection of 50s Elvis Presley singles and fanzines from the auction mart in Orkney. The fanzines were all in sequential numbers from issue one upwards. I've no idea if they are worth owt.

Oh man, me and my Vinyl, got loads of coloured, picture disc, gatefold etc but my fave may have to be.

Anthrax/Public Enemy: Bring the Noise - 12" White label single

or

Clutch: Passive Restraints EP - 12" on Earache from back in the day

Mind you, Baroness's new Live in Maida vale EP on acid etched clear vinyl with gold/black splatter is a thing of beauty.

/Nerd

afx caustic window
afx annalogue bubblebath
spacemen 3 of various records and sonic boom.
smiths boy with a thorn in his side
madchester and numerous other from the rave scene etc

I've got all the picture discs DJ Shadow gave away. I've got a first press of DJ Shadow Diminishing Returns with the all the coasters etc and got a first press (of the initial 1000) of Brainfreeze. They must be worth a few quid.

POSTED 44 MINUTES AGO # REPORT-POST

Original Gatefold Sgt pepper, complete with the cardboard cut-out Beatles figures inside.

KLF, Chill Out.
I don't believe there are that many of them.

Digital Mystikz DMZ001

I've got a copy of 'Wish You Were Here', but it's unopened, so still in the black wrap. Not sure if it's worth much?

A bit niche. Largest number of packets of prawn cocktail crisps eaten in an hour without a drink a 26, set in 1984 and it still stands.

Justified Ancients of Mu Mu - 1987 What the **** is going on?

just googled some random ones i own and found my copy of the damned phantasmagoria with bonus blue 12" of eloise is worth over £20 (on 1 site i looked at anyway!)

Pristine as always kept in a plastic sleeve - and probably not played for some time!!

The wife has got some mono Beatles stuff still unwrapped. Not sure if its worth much mind.

I have a mono copy of, Beggars Banquet by the Rolling Stones, picked it up for £2 from a charity shop, along with other Rolling Stones albums at the time!

Guess I might show a profit on that one if I ever sell it.

One of my all time favorite albums too 😉

American Beat by Beauleisure on 7" vinyl.

The wife has got some mono Beatles stuff still unwrapped. Not sure if its worth much mind.

I would be so tempted to play them, lock them up and hide the key 😉

I have a 4 LP version of Northern Exposure Vol 1 that's prolly worth a few quid. Lots of very early KLF, Aphex Twin, Orbital and early house/dance from 87-89. About 500 odd funk and soul albums from the late 60's early 70's Lou Donaldson, Grant Green etc etc

Don't matter though as not one is getting sold.

Sex Pistols Anarchy in the Uk single.
Sex Pistols Never Mind the Bollocks picture disk Album.
The Clash by The Clash album.
Sham69 Hersham Boys double album.
Dead Kennedys Fresh fruit for rotting vegetables.
Various Uk Subs/SLF singles.

And a Russ Abbot album.

I had a Modern Jazz Quartet pressing on Apple records that I flogged on ebay for around the £100 mark.

I also have the John Coltrane Heavyweight Champion Complete Atlantic Recordings Boxset and on a completely different tip the Major Force Original Artform Boxset

I've just been given a load of records by my dad as well and I imagine there's some peaches in there once I've had a rummage through.

Then there's my Tiffany album - got to be worth 50p!

More annoyingly are the ones that have gone missing - my Leftfield 0- Leftism - Triple Vinyl Gatefold (weren't a huge number of them pressed before they went to just a double album) and my Tony de Vit white lable pressing.

Cheers

U2 - white label BBC live concert recording from 1981.
U2 Lemon club mixes 12" on Yellow transparent vinyl.
Black Crowes - Remedy single 12" in a tin.
Charlatans - Indian Rope, original 12" pressing not re-release.
The Animals. House of the rising sun. Original 7".

DJ Hype- Shot in the Dark

Boddika & Joy Orbison ?– Swims - About £20

Don't suppose you've got Mercy?

[quote=zippykona ]
Mondo Akimbo cd single by The Wildhearts which I've never even listened to

I had that on the white 12", when i was really skint I had to part with it. Luckily they were still really popular at the time, so i got an obscene amount of money for it. same for the first fan club version of fishing for luckies, that paid my rent for a month!

I have some jazz on 78's. 🙂

Also used to have a Winnie the Pooh vinyl single that was a bright colour. 😀

I've got the Sesame St album with the "3 feet high and rising" by De La Soul sample

Tinmen - 18 Strings white label 12"

Baby D - Destiny 12". This is in itself is not rare but it has the live version of Let Me Be Your Fantasy on the b-side and thats the rare part about it.

Original pressing of New Order - Blue Monday. Only ever released as a 12" so not sure how rare this is but the cardboard sleeve must have £10 worth of material in it. Rumour is that they lost money on every copy sold.

I've got a few. Values seem to go up and down every time I look, so don't really bother looking now. Besides, e-bay killed the market somewhat and prices plummeted

Here's a few of mine

Three of my favourites, visually.

I have that Metalheadz one too! Mine is a cd.

I have the Mo'Wax blue and green 12" box sets with 4 records in each. Also got the Headz 2 comps, both boxed. Also Headz 1 double album.
Also got lots of early Iron Maiden stuff like coloured vinyls and shaped picture discs.

About 3000 records in the living room including some super rare Northern Soul. Some potentially worth thousands. I can't sell a record though.

i've got my generation by the who somewhere, no sleeve though.

7" 'ace of spades' by motorhead .

7" Y&T 'mean streak' in picture disc.

Got rid of all my punk ages ago, had some pretty rare Damned stuff but I still don't think they were worth much even today , my biggest problem was keeping them in good nick as when your 13 years old listening in your bedroom at full blast on your ready fusion record player stuff tends to get damaged

I have every Chromakey/kevin moore disc released including ltd editions

seem to be worth quite a bit on the fan forums

Original Glen Burtnick - talking in code

I just cant be bothered with all this 'worth' bollocks Id rather just give it away to someone who thinks its valuable and will use it

Happy Mondays 'Baby Big Head' bootleg, later got a official release I think.
Joy Division bootleg thing someone offered me a fair few quid for once.
Can't remember what else. I think I nicked a Pistols 'Holidays in the Sun' 7" on Virgin off my brother - still got that.
Faith No More 'Midlife Crisis' pic disc.
I'm sure there are others, never sell em though.

Just remembered I also have GnR Paradise City on a gun shaped picture disc with a holster shaped sleeve.

I also have Little Angel's "Too Posh to Mosh" Ep, which I believe is rare, but also not really in demand 🙂

Pearl Jam, Alive on 5" red vinyl. Just Googled it (it's not the reissue), seems worth a few quid!

'Only the strong survive' Jerry Butler. Bought it in 1970 for 30 shillings when a single was 7s 6d. I'll get my coat .... or rather, my mohair suit jacket with the 18" vent and two ticket pockets .....

zippykona- is that the same as the 'wonderful day' ep? I remember that being worth about £100 back in '92....

[i]Motown Junk by The Manics.[/i]

Got the 12" - is that rare?

I have a translucent yellow 12" version of Walking On Music. I won it by successfully charting a yacht course to the Azores (a Radio 210 competition in the late seventies). Hate the tune but keep it for nostalgic reasons.

Celtic Frost - Emperors Return picture disc I would piccy it but it's a tad rude for this forum perhaps. Got others too but this is the only one I can remember.

Oh yeah also got the Sub-Pop 200 box set which is worth some money

I've got a few Guns'n'Roses shaped picture discs and an original 1989 'Appetite for Destruction' vinyl album with the banned 'robot rape' cover.

I've been selling my record collection over the last few months to fund construction of my man-shed, I think I've made about £1400 out of it so far.
However it is now 'on-hold' as we're having some work done on the house, and have had to move out.
I did sell a 12" copy of 'Goodbye Horses' by Q Lazzarus for £320 a couple of months ago!

Still going for around 60 quid - http://www.discogs.com/sell/list?release_id=1018304&ev=rb

I always thought Unbearable was their first single!

Should have got Rob to sign it. He was always in The Ship in Croydon.

I've got a signed Senseless Things demo 12"! Doubt there's much demand for it though!

I've a mint condition, double-gatefold 'No Code' by Pearl Jam, complete with 'Polaroids'.

Also have a complete set of 18 'Djangologie' LPs, the 1970's EMI release. A wonderful, wonderful catalogue of recordings from 1928 to 1950.
